[PATCH v2] mm: cma: print allocation failure reason and bitmap status

[Jaewon Kim]

There are many reasons of CMA allocation failure such as EBUSY, ENOMEM, EINTR.
But we did not know error reason so far. This patch prints the error value.

Additionally if CONFIG_CMA_DEBUG is enabled, this patch shows bitmap status to
know available pages. Actually CMA internally tries on all available regions
because some regions can be failed because of EBUSY. Bitmap status is useful to
know in detail on both ENONEM and EBUSY;
 ENOMEM: not tried at all because of no available region
         it could be too small total region or could be fragmentation issue
 EBUSY:  tried some region but all failed

This is an ENOMEM example with this patch.
[   12.415458]  [2:   Binder:714_1:  744] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 256 pages, ret: -12

If CONFIG_CMA_DEBUG is enabled, avabile pages also will be shown as concatenated
size@position format. So 4@572 means that there are 4 available pages at 572
position starting from 0 position.
[   12.415503]  [2:   Binder:714_1:  744] cma: number of available pages: 4@572+7@585+7@601+8@632+38@730+166@1114+127@1921=> 357 free of 2048 total pages
